OK, I used to have an X-Fi extreme gamer but I finally had it with all the issues and the lack of support from creative! So I ditched it and switched to running on-board sound which actually didn't sound too bad but it was using more of my processor then I liked so I desided since i'm on a tight budget and I work for best buy I would pick up a dynex soundcard, Now my cpu usage has gone way down and I have 5.1 sound back! my only issue is I still get a little popping when I scroll through web pages but it isn't too bad! unlike my x-fi which would pop screech and die! so anyone looking for a basic inexpensive soundcard the dynex ones aren't too bad and you can find updated drivers here! http://www.viaarena.com/default.aspx?PageID=420&OSID=37&CatID=2930&SubCatID=107 And in case anyone is wondering specs. are in sig!
